Ok, so this is the first time I have actually blogged, or anything of that style. 6 days ago I decided to try out a new major. Ill try to explain this new major later, but it is kind of difficult to explain.  So, I will tell you what I know. It is called Micheal Polanyi College, and one is supposed to graduate with a bachelor in science or art. Some people just call it Liberal Arts. 

I have always thought that people just  use the university as a means to get a job and start making money. I understand that, people want to have security, they want to know that they will have money and will be able to support their future family and what not. Well, I have always admired schools or the education of the past, where you learned because it gave you a sense of culturization. Now a days, people dont really care about learning, and I consider myself one of the few who actually care about learning, not to get a degree but just because I want to know more about the world. I just really want to learn.

So yeah, that how I started this major. I actually left behing two and a half years of business administration, and I am starting from scratch. I guess that is what really made me doubt my decision the first couple of days. I was just scared of how diferent from regular education this new major is.

This new “program” is sometimes confusing. I am not really sure what it entirely consists of, but I know I am liking it. Yesterday we learned greek. We also talked about Kant and his definition of enlightenment. If knowledge come with understanding or without.

I have to start documenting this whole process, and I think I am going to start writing essays. I really enjoy that. So hopefully I will be writing one soon and posting it here.
